who ordered guard dog?

This is a messy painting because i’m trying to get the hang of clip studio paint lol. Hyperfixation so bad it pulled you out of both art block and writer’s block.

Totally didn’t base the idea on these two posts:

and ofc the scene where Charles was covered in blood

Charles is tidying up the bookshelves when the door opens again. “Welcome to Tragic Mick’s!” he calls without looking up. “Be right with you.”

“Is Mick in?” a posh voice asks.

Oh, bloody hell, Charles knows that posh voice.

Charles straightens up to see Edwin Payne standing in the doorway, looking around as if Mick might be hiding on one of the shelves. As usual, he looks like he just stepped out of a time capsule in his old-fashioned woolen coat, his slightly askew bow tie, and his perfectly pomaded hair. It shouldn’t work, but Charles supposes you can get away with wearing a bow tie when you look like a model.

“Morning, mate.” Charles makes his way over to the counter, taking his time.

I think Edwin and Charles would enjoy the beach. They'd find cool shells and trade them with each other. Charles would find a really big one and insist that he wanted to keep it to hear the ocean in it, and Edwin would scoff because "Charles, you ought to know that there's a spell for that in the compendium."

I also think they'd find little sand crabs. Charles would talk to them nicely and draw little patterns in the sand to serve as pathways for them to walk on in funny shapes. Edwin would be fascinated by their willingness to follow the paths and try to study them.

While this happens, Niko and Crystal build a HUGE sandcastle. Charles puts one of the crabs in to be King of the Beach

I think Edwin would love Tetris for Fun Puzzle Challenge reasons (and because let's be honest the falling blocks are a GREAT stim.)

On the other hand, I think he'd hate Pac Man because the entire premise of the game is you run -> something catches you -> it eats you

And I attempt to do edits again! Is the bisexual flag colored text in that one image too much? I think not.

My first drawing of Edwin <3 Now everyone say "Wow Mirella, your art has really improved~" That being said, I'm still very pleased with this, and colouring it was very fun. I love picking colours for them.

Phyllis, living her best life.

To the glistening eastern sea, I give you Queen Lucy the Valiant. To the great western wood, King Edmund the Just. To the radiant southern sun, Queen Susan the Gentle. And to the clear northern sky, I give you King Peter the Magnificent.

Once a king or queen of Narnia, always a king or queen. May your wisdom grace us until the stars rain down from the heavens.

An amazing art by CrazyTom.

To be fond of dancing was a certain step towards falling in love.
